Poured a transparent bronze, honey color with a creamy looking head that faded quick. Nose is subtle, but very appealing with malt, spice, yeast, honey and biscuit all meshing. Flavor is complimentary with malts, biscuit, honey, sweet orange all in the mouth. Finish is clean and sweet, no hint of the heavier than usual alcohol.

Poured a deep, opaque, mahogany with a creamy slightly tan head. Smelled of peat moss, malt, brown sugar and candy. Tastes the same, sweet and smooth. Spicy finish. Good but not great.

12 oz bottle. Poured a copper/orange color. Aroma is a bit of sweet caramels, hops, and a touch of yeast. Flavor is malty, with a bit of spice in it. Overall this is a fine beer for the coming months in the fall.

Pretty clear pale orangish color. Perhaps a little sweetness in this yeasty aroma. Can’t read the date on this 12 oz twist off cap bottle. Slight petroleum taste on the back of the palate. Has more bitter personality compared to other fest beers. Good medium carbonation. Building controlled malt bitterness parks itself in the finish and hangs around for a while.

12 oz. bottle. Aroma of orange and coriander. Hazy golden color with a white head that ringed quickly. Thin in body, creamy in carbonation. Orange peel bitter in flavor, and there does seem to be coriander, but this is all about the citrus. The finish is like orange oil with bitter. Citrus bitter. Startling and refreshing.

Pass by this a few times cause I thought I already tasted it. At first I’d never think of this as an american wheat, it is way too much like a pale american lager. Aroma is a little yeasty and clean. It must be filtered, completely clear pale yellow. Taste comes on more like a mild pale ale, I sense some hops in there with that bitter bite. Good above average carbonation. I guess I do detect a slight hint of wheat beer. Mild bitter back of throat lasting and lingering finish, not what I like in a wheat.

Bottle. Pour looks a lot like a ginger ale at first, maybe a little more orange, though. Aromas are sweet, like caramel apples, but as it warms the apple juice smells fade and are replaced by some faint notes of citrus hops. Caramel dominates the flavor, but it ends on a nice little hops bitterness that works well. It is not going to blow your socks off or win any creativity awards, but it is a very solid beer.

Bottle. Light, refreshing beverage. Decent, but nothing special at all. Aroma is of citrus and yeast. Flavor is lemons and thats about it.

Sampler at Family Liquors, Homewood. Clean smell of bottled wit, and a yellow color with just a bit of haze. I’d say the taste is right between a wit and a Hacker-Pschorr. Lacks the banana and is low on spices, but that makes for a better-drinking summer beer.

22 oz bottle. It says its an IPA but it’s very malty. Creamy white head which dissipates pretty quickly. Flavor is hoppy, malty, sweet, and a little toasted.
